Geometric construction of optimal designs for dose-responsemodels with two parameters
Dette, Holger; Biedermann, Stefanie; Zhu, Wei - Institut für Wirtschafts- und Sozialstatistik, … - 2005
In dose-response studies, the dose range is often restricted due to concerns over drug toxicity and/or efficacy. We derive optimal designs for estimating the underlying dose-response curve for a restricted or unrestricted dose range with respect to a broad class of optimality criteria. The...

Estimating the dose-response function through the GLM approach
Guardabascio, Barbara; Ventura, Marco - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2013
This paper revises the estimation of the dose-response function as in Hirano and Imbens (2004) by proposing a flexible way to estimate the generalized propensity score when the treatment variable is not necessarily normally distributed. We also provide a set of programs that accomplish this task...

PREVENTABLE FOOD BORNE ILLNESS WITH DOSE-RESPONSE DAMAGES: OPTIMAL SHARING OF PREVENTION BETWEEN CONSUMERS AND PROCESSORS AND THE EFFECT OF PRODUCT LIABILITY
Roe, Brian E. - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 1999
As public concern for food safety burgeons concerned policy makers search for ways to manage the risk inherent to food consumption. Product liability laws may serve as efficient means to induce socially optimal levels of care or may efficiently complement regulation of potentially injurious...
